Deep in Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village, I discovered this heavenly guesthouse! Open the window to a 270° panoramic view of layered mountains and Miao stilt houses, with sea of clouds, sunrise, and starry skies always on show 🌄 Jian Shan · Yi Fang Jian Su blends the poetic charm of the Miao Village with modern light luxury, letting me capture the best photos of my life!
📌【Location Perfection】
• Located at the highest point of Yangpai Village, a 5-minute walk to the police station and viewing platform, avoiding crowds while overlooking thousands of lights
• Killer advantage: every room has a prime scenic view! Facing the terraced fields and village, rainy and foggy days bring an ink-wash painting vibe
• Nearby activities:
• Watch morning cooking smoke (6:30-7:30)
• Capture the Milky Way at night (after 11 PM with little light pollution)
• 10-minute walk to the “Beautiful Xijiang” performance venue
🏡【Room Highlights】
✔️Panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows + electric curtains, lie down and watch the clouds roll by
✔️Smart toilet / Xiaodu voice control / Dyson hairdryer set
✔️Bedding tested super comfortable, bathrobes are fleece-lined!
🎁Hidden perk: free Miao herbal foot soak bucket on check-in, perfect after hiking to soak until you don’t want to get up
📸【Photo Guide】
1. Rooftop terrace (5:00 PM blue hour)
• Pair with free Miao costumes provided by the guesthouse!
• Shooting angle: sit sideways at the terrace edge, showing the layered stilt houses in the background
2. Round table afternoon tea in the room (2:00-4:00 PM)
• Yangmei juice in a wine glass + snacks on a bamboo tray for photos
• Recommend wearing light-colored lazy-style pajamas
3. Window silhouette (sunrise time)
• Backlit shots capturing the outline of people and mist
👩💼【Butler Service】
• Meet and carry luggage at the village gate (killer stone slab roads in the Miao Village!)
• Sweet soup before bed + next day weather reminders
• Can help book long table banquets / carpool to Zhenyuan
💡【Travel Tips】
• Best seasons: May-June irrigation period (mirror-like terraces) or October Miao New Year Festival
• Transport: 1-hour taxi from Kaili South Station (contact butler in advance to bargain)
• Must bring: non-slip shoes! The Miao Village is all stone slab steps
In short: this guesthouse takes “living in the scenery” to the extreme, with smart features and authentic Miao experiences, perfect for those who want to deeply feel the Miao Village without sacrificing comfort!
